Garrett Almond Garrett Almond 6'1" | CG Chanute | 2021 State KS , 2021, Chanute:
The 6-foot-1 Almond has a sturdy build and can bull his way around the court. He’s aggressive in transition and finds his teammates with the ball. He runs the point effectively for Invictus U17, but he can play a variety of spots due to his size and versatility. He can shoot from the perimeter, as well as creating in the open floor.
Haiden McCoy, 2021, Pittsburg:
McCoy catches a lot of eyes despite being an unselfish, team-first guy. At 6-foot-5, he is a lanky ball handler and passer who stands out aa a unique talent. He’s always working to get others involved and to set up their opportunities. He hit an impressive step-back 3-pointer to demonstrate his comfort-level on the perimeter. His ability to handle the ball is impressive for his size.
Caleb Muia, 2019, Girard:
Muia traveled with Invictus for the tournament to get some game action. The top player in 3A a year ago, Muia will start his college career at Central Community College in Nebraska in the fall. He’s a dynamic athlete and incredible leaper. He needs to expand his game for the college level, so summer action is important for his development.
